today I got a frantic call about 3 ferrets, one has adrenal disease , so he is already weak, and does not feel well -the owner did not keep up on the Melatonin Implants , so he is getting a new one on Monday - these ferrets were adopted out by my friend, the lady who took them decided she no longer wanted them - so my friend told her she would get them into a rescue ( not me) well, we had 22 days of rain, and then one huge storm, the rescue these little guys were suppose to go to in Cleveland Ohio flooded 3' feet deep - so all those ferrets are in foster care, ( 62 of them!) until the building can be repaired - the lady had called my friend around 9 am today - she had told my friend she wanted the ferrets gone as soon as possible - but never acted like it was a big deal or anything - just soon- 5 hrs later, my friend gets a call and the lady told her she had "thrown" all the ferrets in the drive way - she raced over, and sure enough - IN 103 HEAT INDEX- there they all sat - my friend asked when did she do this- she said, '" right after I talked to you" - so those poor things were in that heat that long- the one is not doing very well, and you can tell she did not take care of them- my friend also ran a ferret rescue, but had to shut it down due to serious health issues in her family- between this, and reading the most horrid thread on here I have ever seen - "the one" in the health section - I just feel sad tonight, but at least these little guys have someplace to stay until they find the proper homes or the rescue is repaired - the last 2 pics are of the little sick one - how could someone throw him out like trash
